   1      28 oz can     crushed tomatoes
   1      clove         garlic -- chopped
   4      slices        prosciutto
     1/2  stick         butter

Preparation:

Cut prosciutto or bacon into small pieces. Melt butter and sauté‚proscuitto and garlic until lightly browned. Add tomatoes, pepper flakes and salt and cook for 1 hour stirring occasionally. Keep partially covered so that the sauce can reduce. When sauce has reduced to about half, add heavy cream and vodka, bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer for 1/2 hour and serve over Penne, Rigatoni, or other "shaped" pasta. NOTE: If sauce becomes too thick, add either more cream or some water.
